I give one star for places I know I would never go back to even if I had friends that invited me, and this is one of those places. Based on the other positive reviews 4 of us decided to try it for lunch. Not one person in our group had anything good to say and the one that suggested we try the place even apologized for it afterwards. Atmosphere We went on a Thursday during peak lunch time and we were the only customers the entire time. The waitress was lying on an empty bench on the phone most of the time. The atmosphere was drab; there was old masking tape with numbers on the wall of each booth, presumably from the old restaurant. There were pictures of the food with numbers next to them like you see in Chinese carry out on the main dining room wall. They had two of the oldest TVs hanging from the ceilings - they need to just get rid of the TVs and the pictures of the food and spruce the place up a bit. Food: Well strange enough, you wont get hibachi at the hibachi grill for lunch; they dont do it - so forget it. They will let you order from the hibachi menu but it is the same exact price as the dinner (17 - 24 dollars) they just cook it in the back and not on the hibachi table. We decided we would just order from the limited lunch menu instead. Between the four of us we had some chicken, noodles, steak, rice, sushi and salad. The chicken tasted like it was frozen and was tasteless and dry, the noodles were mushy from being over-cooked, there were supposed to be vegetables in the meal but we got about 2 slices of zucchini and nothing else, the sushi was warm and not what I would consider good sushi, the guests that had the steak just keep saying it tasted weird. Of course we left most of the food un-eaten. We would have said something to the waitress but I guess she had more important things to do like rest in the booth on the phone. Verdict: I dont understand the good reviews at all. I can easily say this place is not good and certainly not the best hibachi or sushi, it wasnt even close to being average. I am not even sure they were trying. The food reminded me of mall courtyard food except not as good. You wont see us back there and judging from the lack of a lunch crowd I think others must feel the same. If they are going to open for lunch they need to do it 100%, it needs quality and attention if not they will lose 100% of customers that step in to try them for lunch and find the same experience and low quality of food that we did

We went there on New Years eve at 9:00 pm with family with a reservation. Let me start off by telling you that the food was excellent. The service was not. They were not busy because of the holiday so I thought it would be nice to take my family. We had a gentleman named Woody? He seemed real nice at first and it went downhill from there. He started cooking and thats all he did the whole time he watched TV and cook. I paid for a show thats why you do Hibachi! My wife ordered chicken and shrimp. She ever got her chicken as he gave it to the other guy in the group who ordered steak. He got both and never let the chef know it. I asked why no chicken but with him watching TV it was useless. He told me that he would discount the bill since my wife got fed up with him. So I got the bill and no reduction for the chicken fiasco. Had to get up and find someone to reduce bill. In closing this place was highly recommended to me and really disappointed me and my wife. I would give it one star but the food was good when we got it! Also price was not an issue.

Being new in Florida, we tried this on a whim and I hate to say it, but we are disappointed. The sashimi was still frozen. Imitation crab was put on our plate. The green tea was not what we were expecting like in traditional sushi restaurants. It was a tea bag. The Wasabi and ginger were great. Smoked salmon is not on the menu. The selection is very limited. We will venture elsewhere for a sushi dinner.

I LOVE THIS RESTAURANT! IT IS KID FRIENDLY AND THE FOOD IS AMAZING. I WENT THERE WITH FAMILY AND IVE GONE THERE WITH BUSINESS CLIENTS. I WOULD GO THERE BEFORE ANY OTHER HIBACHI RESTAURANT IN TOWN. ALSO THE CHEF ROGER IS SO FUNNY AND ENTERTAINING! EVERYTIME I GO, I ORDER THE STEAK, CHICKEN, SHRIMP COMBINATION AND ITS ALWAYS SO FRESH. SO MUCH BETTER THAN PEKING TOKYO.

Every time I come, I have an excellent experience. its true, it is kind of slow during the Day; however the beauty of this place is the its gem in the rough factor. its in a shopping plaza and the sign seems very unassuming. Friendly Staff, Cookc are Fun, and Thats what Hibachi is All about. So Kudos, see ya Soon and keep my Sake Warm!

My wife and I came here for date night because of the amazing reviews. Sadly we were not happy. Some of the sashimi was still frozen, the salmon was very fatty and not too tasty. The rolls were very bland. The cuts of eel had lots of bones in them, and the green tea was a tea bag in a plastic cup.

Go for hibachi and it is always amazing no matter which cook you get! Some cooks may not do the whole big show especially for an all adult table but the food makes up for it!! Absolutely the best hibachi in Coral Springs!!

Of course, because its the only hibachi within a mile! No, Im just kidding. Its a pretty good place. Hey, you should ask Roger where he used to work next time you see him. :)
